I've had one for a couple of years, and if I needed to rely on a phone at all I would have replaced this piece of junk ages ago.

1. The ringer randomly switches between ringtone and vibrate.

2. Text entry randomly switches between T9 and multitap.

3. Reading text messages is a pain. When a message is received a prompt appears; hit Yes to read. Then hit C to unlock. Then hit Yes again to read the message. It seems to have about a 1s timeout on each prompt, so you'll often find yourself trapped in an endless loop of trying to get the sodding thing to unlock.

4. There's no obvious way of saving a number from the call list to the phone book. You can call a number back, at least. Sadly that's -all- you can do.

5. The housing creaks and groans like a tallship's rigging during a gale. Heaven only knows how people I talk to on it can actually hear me over that.

6. The memory is so small it's tragic. This would possibly be tolerable in a low-use phone, except the "Delete all messages" options are buggy and usually don't.

7. Speed dial is a joke. 1-9 will call phone book entries 1-9; just try sorting a halfway-full phone book so that the numbers you *want* are in 1-9. Gah.

Conclusion: possibly useful if you're after a solid object to block a toilet with. And even then it would probably break.
